No. Normally, users are defined once for the whole set of databases
handled by one postmaster (one $PGDATA directory). Superuser authority
attaches to the user alone.
There is a new facility in 7.3 to define per-database users, but it is
turned off by default. (The GUC name is DB_USER_NAMESPACE; see admin
manual 3.4.4.)

SELECT usename FROM pg_user WHERE usesuper;
